vf1-01 Author of the danger trail, Philip Steels, etc
vf1-02 Not at this particular case, Tom, apologized Whittemore
vf1-03 For the twentieth time that evening the two men shook hands
vf1-04 Lord, but I'm glad to see you again, Phil
vf1-05 Will we ever forget it
vf1-06 God bless 'em, I hope I'll go on seeing them forever
vf1-07 And you always want to see it in the superlative degree
vf1-08 Gad, your letter came just in time
vf1-09 He turned sharply, and faced Gregson across the table
vf1-10 I'm playing a single hand in what looks like a losing game
vf1-11 If I ever needed a fighter in my life I need one now
vf1-12 Gregson shoved back his chair and rose to his feet
vf1-13 He was a head shorter than his companion, of almost delicate physique
vf1-14 Now you're coming down to business, Phil, he exclaimed
vf1-15 It's the aurora borealis
vf1-16 There's Fort Churchill, a rifle-shot beyond the ridge, asleep
vf1-17 From that moment his friendship for Belize turns to hatred and jealousy
vf1-18 There was a change now
vf1-19 I followed the line of the proposed railroad, looking for chances
vf1-20 Clubs and balls and cities grew to be only memories
vf1-21 It fairly clubbed me into recognizing it
vf1-22 Hardly were our plans made public before we were met by powerful opposition
vf1-23 A combination of Canadian capital quickly organized and petitioned for the same privileges
vf1-24 It was my reports from the north which chiefly induced people to buy
vf1-25 I was about to do this when cooler judgment prevailed
vf1-26 It occurred to me that there would have to be an accounting
vf1-27 To my surprise he began to show actual enthusiasm in my favor
vf1-28 Robbery, bribery, fraud,
vf1-29 Their forces were already moving into the north country
vf1-30 I had faith in them
vf1-31 They were three hundred yards apart
vf1-32 Since then some mysterious force has been fighting us at every step
vf1-33 He unfolded a long typewritten letter, and handed it to Gregson
vf1-34 Men of Selden's stamp don't stop at women and children
vf1-35 He stopped, and Philip nodded at the horrified question in his eyes
vf1-36 She turned in at the hotel
vf1-37 I was the only one who remained sitting
vf1-38 We'll have to watch our chances
vf1-39 The ship should be in within a week or ten days
vf1-40 I suppose you wonder why she is coming up here
